‘Cedars Road Annex by Peter Barber is a ’stepping stone’ facility located to the rear of an existing homeless hostel in Clapham. It provides dayrooms, a kitchen, counselling rooms and studio flats all with south views across the beautiful lawned gardens.

The new building is an expressive sculptural form made from a single ribbon of structure which folds back on itself to create the floors and primary spaces.

‘Gazing out from the front deck into the sunshine, and with a wild overgrown garden laid out before you– drugs or no drugs, there are probably few places you’d rather be.’ Jan-Carlos Kucharek, The Riba Journal, August 2007
